Harlem Library

The Harlem Library board will hold their regular monthly meeting today, March 19, at 4:30 P.M. in the library meeting room.

During the month of March be sure to stop by and “Buy a Bag O’Books.” You may purchase a grocery sack full of used books for only one dollar.

The Book Challenge for March is to read a book with the words “Luck” or “Lucky” in the title, or a book with a green cover.

The library will be closed from noon on March 25 through March 28 so the staff may attend the state library conference.

We have free notary services available at the library. You may also scan documents at no cost. Photo copying and printing cost twenty cents per page for black and white and one dollar per page for color.
